Neolithic Europe : a survey
Author:Alasdair W. R. Whittle

Series:
Cambridge world archaeology

xiv, 363 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm.


Neolithic Europe is a wide-ranging, thematic survey of the archaeological evidence for the period 8000-2000 BC. The last hunting and food collecting societies of Europe are discussed, but the book's main coverage is the Neolithic period, when agriculture was adopted as the dominant force in European society. Dr Whittle's treatment is systematic: covering Greece and the Balkans, the central and western Mediterranean, central and western Europe. Each chapter ,reviews the nature of the evidence, the environment, chronology and cultural sequences, settlements and the social control of production. Other aspects of social relations are discussed, including burial, ritual, the exchange and the uses of material culture. Major themes are the nature of the transition to agriculture and the subsequent development of social differentiation.
